Dear Juno,

I believe that you did the right thing. You were not ready to care for a child, yet you did not go through with the abortion. Instead, you decided to give the baby up for adoption, which is a much better option, because it allows someone who might want a child, yet is unable to have one, to have one. Instead of rushing everything, you carefully considered the options, and took the one you felt would be best for you. It was probably difficult to carry the baby to term, but you did everything you could, which was ultimately the right thing to do.

You could have gone through with the abortion, ending the problem quickly, and never had to think of it again, but you did not, choosing to carry out the pregnancy, and give up the baby. That was a brave move, and you were well aware of the effects this would have. When you decided to have unprotected sex, you set in motion a chain of events which had very few possible outcomes. In doing so, you put yourself at risk of many different things, but you managed to make it through, without many problems.
